    One of my favorites... Shhhhh!!! Don't tell the others that this is one of my favorite Longs...and yup this is the former Star Market location and one of the reason, parking lots of parking and with countless entrance from either South King or South Beretania Street though as i do adore this location i guess the comfort of coming here and picking up my essentials was a quick and easy process though I've never documented the love i have for our neighborhood Longs. Along with the drive thru pharmacy that i do see many take full advantage of they do have Bank of Hawaii right along side them and i always find whatever i need here and the staff are very efficient and friendly as I needed to return an item and did so within seconds. Thank you for keeping me sane and stocking me with the snacks and various items that we all love and need. Thank you!

    Stopped by today to look at the Sunday ad items. IYKYK ritual for Hawaii locals. Parking lot was pretty full today. I had to circle around to find parking. The store is well lit and organized. I walked around looking at the sale items and Lunar new year items as well. I found a few items to try of course. The cashier lines were not too long here. A short stop and off I went.

    We don't frequent this Longs Drugs. We're here to dispose of expired medications

    This review is only for their Pharmacy Department. Having worked in a medical center for years, I became aware of the proper disposal of pharmaceutical waste. Some companies provide safe, easy, and affordable pharmaceutical waste disposal solutions. The correct and lawful turn-in of pharmaceutical waste is crucial to preventing drug misuse and is safer for the environment. Fortunately, at my age, I don't need or take more than two prescription medications for chronic issues; however, I joke about my husband's medicine cabinet that looks like he could start his pharmacy. His cadre of physicians has changed his medications several times over the year to address some of his medical conditions, so every so often, we go through his medications that he no longer takes and to properly get rid of them. Besides, we know that once a pharmacy dispenses the drug and leaves that pharmacy's custody, the pharmacy cannot accept any returns even if the packaging is intact and the product is unused. Proper and safe disposal is the key to keeping others and the environment from being misused, especially unused narcotics. We visited our usual CVS Longs Drugs Pharmacy - Ala Moana and inquired if they had a medication disposal bin available to the public. The pharmacy technician advised us that pharmaceutical disposal bins are located at this store and their Kamehameha Shopping Center locations. So we made a beeline to this location as it is more convenient to do so to dispose of the medications. For privacy, when you take your unused prescription medications in, you should use a black marker to cover your name on the label, or you can combine the drugs in an unmarked prescription bottle. Last week, when we came into this CVS Longs, we quickly located the Pharmacy Department and were about to ask the technician for the location of their disposal bin when I spied it in a corner next to a chair. She noticed me heading for the waste box but stopped me because the box was locked and full and they were waiting for the pharmaceutical returns company to empty it. Tsk. I slipped the bottles back into my purse and decided to return on another day. Luckily, on this second visit, I had a few moments to examine the box for its security (yup, its padlocked drop box with one-way drop access) and told my husband to just drop his unmarked bottles in. Easy-peasy and FREE pharmaceutical disposal can be found at select CVS Longs Drugs. So, if you have excess and or expired medications lying around your home, Id recommend that you do you, your family, others, and the environment the correct disposal way instead of just dumping your medications into the trash or water systems.

    This five-star review is for my experience yesterday at the pharmacy. I was assisted by Winnie, who was very very very helpful and kind! I came to pick up my prescription, which my doctor faxed over in the morning. It was my first time taking this medication, and it cost a lot more than I had expected but I was sort of prepared to pay for it (I mean, what am I gonna do, right?) Winnie asked if I had any coupon to offset the price. I gave her a blank stare coz I had no idea what she meant! She suggested I look up the manufacturer's coupon website, which I couldn't find. Then she offered to look it up for me, but which will take some time. I thought ok why not. She literally created an account for me then and there! I felt bad standing at the counter while the other staff member served the line of customers which had formed in the time I was waiting. Anyway the whole process took maybe 20 minutes (I didn't keep track but by then the bank had closed). And my total copay was zero for three months' worth of medication. She helped me save at least $100!! Winnie at the pharmacy is a rock star!! (The other staff too as I observed, they're all friendly and polite!) In fact the few times I shopped at this Longs, the staff I encountered have been helpful and friendly. I once asked someone about disposable gloves and he went in search of them even though it wasn't his area. He even called the Manoa Longs to check on their inventory too. Parking is plentiful. The shelves are well-stocked. And there's a BOH attached to the store as well. Oh and there's a drive-thru pharmacy too.

    At the front of the store, there's a list of what's available and popular

    Shopping in Moiliili, Honolulu, Hawaii... This past Memorial Day weekend, I had a bunch of errands to do in town (Honolulu). Between appointments, I wanted to use my 30 percent off coupon which Longs (CVS Pharmacy) emailed to me. There's an option for members of the loyalty program to add coupon (with just a tap on a button) onto the card (with the barcode) for more efficiency and convenience... genius! I also was looking for posterboards to make signs for our friends, Russ and Jessica, as they are about to leave Hawaii and start a new chapter in their lives in Las Vegas. I wanted my Yelp Hawaii friends to show the happy couple some words of encouragement and well wishes... Longs helped us accomplish our goal by providing friendly employees, clean/safe/spacious environment, free parking, cool air conditioning, and reasonable prices. This particular location used to be Star Supermarket. It's 24/7 and is relatively near to the University of Hawaii. I easily found the colorful posterboards in the stationary/school & office supplies section. Also available for milestones such as retirement and graduation are leis made of candy and local snacks, greeting cards, adult beverages, etc. Popular items at this time of Pandemic are face masks and disposable wipes. There's a list at the entrance as to which items are soldnout. The weekly newspaper advertisement was posted on the wall for everyone's perusal. Longs is just a local favorite store. It's consistently reliable, so it's usually my first choice when I make any purchase. "Saying goodbye is never an easy thing..." (from Love Will Lead You Back by Taylor Dayne) However, with Longs by your side, it really helps out... We'll truly miss Russ and Jessica... wishing them all good things in their new home on the 9th island... Happy retirement, Russ! We appreciate your service to our country! Air hugs to Makana and Jessica, too! See you again soon!

    If I had to rank all the Longs Drugs I've been to all around Oahu, I have to put this one at or near the top of the list. Whenever there's a sale, especially extremely popular items, this Longs will almost always have it in stock while other Longs will run out the first day of the sale and never restock. That goes with other popular items as well. I always do a quick search on the CVS website and almost always, this Longs is always listed as having it "In Stock." This Longs is very convenient to get to as you can easily drive in and out of the parking lot in both East and west direction along Beretania and South King St. There's a decent amount of parking stalls, but it does fill up when it's busy with shoppers and others who park here to go to Cafe Maharani. The inside is bright and spacious and definitely feels like they have way more things than other Longs. It is very well staffed with multiple cashiers open, and you'll almost always run into a staff member who will ask if you need help. All of them are friendly, helpful, and courteous. Overall, I like that this Longs will always have what you need and what's on sale in stock. I feel this Longs is a lot more on it in customer service and keeping their store well stocked, while all the other Longs are slow and incompetent. This Longs also has a drive thru Pharmacy and it is open 24/7! Can't beat that!

    I love coming to this location. They always have the sale items on hand, but if they run out you can do a rain check (rain check never expires). This morning as soon as I walk in the store, one of the staff greeted me with a good morning and a beautiful smile. This just brightened my day. I like coming to this location. I know where most of the items are located and items are usually stocked. The pharmacy is open 24 hours and they have a drive thru. I love the CVS App, I get notifications when my medication is ready to fill, ready to pick up and all the great coupons I earned by shopping.

    Open 24-hours for everyone's convenience. That's the best thing in this store. ~ Dropped by here to grab my prescription medicine for the suppression of my stomach acidity coz Long Drugs in Ala Moana Target is closed. Good thing is they do the transaction to transfer it in here. Easy and smooth transaction and in less than 30-minutes we drive all the way to here and viola! My medicine was ready! Scott, one of the pharmacist cater us and we do have a good experience so far. He's funny & so efficient! ~ It's a pretty big convenient store & we did not encounter any problem so far. I hope in the future we won't. LoL. Leave the store with satisfaction and head directly to the Filipino Film Festival after. ~ Aloha and HAPPY JUANDERING fellow yelpers!

    $3 of bleach, 5+ feet of coupons! Are you kidding!

    I've come to know Pioneer Pantry for a while now. It's a small little convenience store that can be…read morea lifesaver and a place where life can restore some meaning in the universe. It's a place where you can be yourself. I've come to value Pioneer Pantry for what it is. They've been here for 20 years and I'm just noticing for a month or so now in June 2026. I recently relocated jobs and now work in the downtown Honolulu area. After discovering Pioneer Pantry, I feel like its been a good thing to have when you're running late and didn't have breakfast. Its nice to come here and score some breakfast muffins or those bag of chips, or even cold drinks to have during drab office hours during the day. Pioneer Pantry functions like a 7-Eleven with an actual live kitchen in the back. Pioneer Pantry is a small functioning convenience store that carries most things that many people enjoy on a daily basis. On most mornings, I would enter the store running late to the office and stumble through here. I would pick up a couple of items and a cold drink and be on my way. I wasn't sure if the fountain drink machine was operational or not, so I just grabbed a cold bottle from one of their refrigerators. The prices here can be a bit more than other places, but I was in a rush - most days anyway. The overall experience here at the Pioneer Pantry is good and blessed that they are here. It's nice to have them here for those of us who are rushing to work and have this oasis on the way there for breakfast and other necessities. During the early morning though, they are open along with the Wiki Wiki Drive Inn before 8am. During the lunch hours, they are open along with the other restaurants in the Pioneer Plaza food court fully open for business. The ladies in the back of the store are very friendly and are awesome. Small business owners are amazing for sure. I try to stop by every day here to pick up something for breakfast. Knowing my schedule, I tend to sleep in and rush to work anyway and having Pioneer Pantry here to help is a big boost for me. Majority of my experiences here are happy ones and don't intend on changing. For the most part though, it's always nice to have this place here. While people have their Starbucks or McDonald's in the morning, I rely on Pioneer Pantry for my cold morning beverage of choice, which incidentally includes a cold soda with or without ice. Most people love hot or iced coffee to start their day. I prefer cold soda. Not healthy, but its my thing and it's pretty good. The Pioneer Pantry is located inside Pioneer Plaza building on the 1st floor food court. It's physically located at 900 Fort Street Mall in downtown Honolulu. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. It's next to the taco place and the Subway restaurant. As far as parking is concerned, best bet would be either street parking or paid parking garages nearby. If you are like me, public transportation is good and there's a bunch of bus routes that traverse thru the downtown corridor. Pick the ones that stop off at either Bishop Street or Fort Street Mall and walk on over. And of course, there's always Uber and Lyft and even Tauro, if you need their services. For now though, if you work or pass thru downtown Honolulu and don't like what the others are offering you, consider Pioneer Pantry at the Pioneer Plaza building. It's a nice trip here to grab something on the way to work every morning. Or a quick snack for lunch too. Its definitely a lifesaver when you're running late and you can support local businesses too. 5.0 stars for the overall experience. Support local! A+

She is so personable and a joy to speak with. She offers inexpensive breakfast bentos featuring white or fried rice, a fried egg and pieces of Portuguese sausage, bacon or frankfurter. The meat varies. It used to sell for $3 but now costs $4.50 (I think). It's still a deal and the containers are great! (We use them to hold leftovers.) During lunch she sets up an array of entrees ... Honey Walnut shrimp, Beef with Vegetables, Meat Jun, Spicy Chicken, Choi Sum, Vegetable Pancake ... the selection varies by day and she offers two or three starches. A two-choice plate ($9.75) comes with a choice of white rice, fried rice or noodles. You have to go early; she can run out of food by 12:30pm. I usually choose one chicken dish and a vegetable with fried rice or noodles. A co-worker always gets the Honey-Walnut shrimp. It's hard to find a better deal in a plate lunch in downtown Honolulu. Her drinks are "the deal", $1.25, $1.50 and $1.75, for large, larger and humongous. Add in the personable service and you have a winner! Hey, stay away, we don't want any more competition for her food. Highly recommended!

Bonus, you get those musubi hot & fresh, if you don't see them on counter or the musubi you want is not available in egg with spam or just spam, only 2 varieties, mom or pop will make it right there for you. @$2.00 for spam only and I believe $2.45 for egg with spam. Located at Kukui Plaza tucked away in the back, you will have to walk pass few shops, to see the handwritten sign of " Best Musubi in Hawaii" posted on the door. Although there are bentos available & other goodies, I am mostly here for the delicious musubi. Why so good? My opinion, lets start with spam, perfectly cooked, with secret sauce, love the umami taste while I took my first bite, and the rice is hot & moist, not watery & not premium rice but it is still good, along with the nori. I loved everything about this musubi. Great spam to rice ratio. The only thing that I need is some of my chili spices! Mom & Pop is super friendly, I remember asking how many musubi's they sell a day and owner mentioned they make and sell over 100 a day. I usually park quick at the loading zone of Kukui Plaza, let the security know and walk over real quick to load up on my musubi(s). Don't forget cash only! Recommend, check it out and get your musubi fix or a quick and convenient lunch!

Every time I walk inside, there's a strong, unpleasant odor that smells like sewage or fecal matter. It's consistent enough that it doesn't feel like a one-off issue--it's something you notice immediately when you enter the store. At times it seems stronger in certain areas, which makes me wonder if it's coming from plumbing, floor drains, or possibly even outside air getting pulled in. What's frustrating is that this location used to feel like one of the better-run stores on the island. Now, the overall impression is very different. Even if the shelves are stocked and the staff is doing their job, the environment itself really affects the experience of shopping there. What stands out is the comparison with nearby stores like Safeway, which don't seem to have the same issue, even though they serve the same general area. That contrast makes the problem at this location even more noticeable. I hope management takes a serious look at it, because this doesn't feel like a minor cleanliness issue--it feels like an infrastructure or maintenance problem that's been left unresolved for too long. It's a shame, because the store has a lot of potential and used to be a go-to spot.
